Moved to Miami from the SF Bay, and absolutely happy: no leaks, no power outages, storm sewer really works, concrete buildings, at a 50% discount 🤣 It's fun that I've met 5 folks who've just moved from NYC, and they're also happy with local price/value

A month of OVERSUBSCRIBED rounds in everything “AI” or “Stanford.” I’ve seen everything including $4B+ valuations for a team with no product 😂 1/ I do believe AI is a great thing. 2/ But I don’t recommend investing just because there are some Stanford/OpenAI dropouts

Been at the ICP Community Conference Miami event: 1/ Awesome food 2/ Positive energized people 3/ Mind-blowing venue (huge casino from early 00s with tons of people) Happy to feel the optimistic crypto vibe again 🤣 Would love to have smoother ecosystem onboarding experience for newbies

SF meetups: — We build stuff nobody needs, raised a $1m seed from a fancy VC, and will probably reach $1m ARR in two years 🥹 Miami/NYC meetups: — We move $10m/day across our 20 global legal entities and made $300m EBITDA last year

Investing in Angel syndicates on AngelList is fun: 1/ GPs pumping expectations and hurry folks up 2/ Then disappear with no news for 1-2 years. 3/ And there’s no UI to contact them and ask WTF. Crypto ICOs at least got Telegram chats for collective therapy of investors 😂

99.9% of "web3" folks became AI folks in a whim. Thanks to the AI for wiping up the crypto industry from wannapreneurs 🌸

🚀Yesterday we got a blast in Palo Alto: 60+ registrations and lots of attendees with awesome products, for example: . AI mortgage bot that underwrites you, signs docs, and wires you money. . Decentralized Shopify. . Secure and private P2P video conferencing. To name a few

The most active events in SF now are job fairs 😜 Startup meetups are getting way less attention

🚀 Our fourth Silicon Valley $ICP event was in partnership with @learndotxyz and was a mix of web3 and AI. Tons of legit products, including — AI docs/vids parsing — fiat/crypto on/off ramp — smart house multi-device API and more #InternetComputer #ICPeople DFINITY Foundation #ICP

Here's a recap of our SF $ICP events: — 138 emails in the database — 8 new dev teams for the #InternetComputer ecosystem — 19 more teams in the line — one huge partnership with local 30k+ web3 community leaders LFG 🚀 #ICPeople DFINITY Foundation

🤪 Apartments that tech folks deserved: nbcbayarea.com/news/local/mak… Monocultures are not viable, sorry.

American cities with Universities are a nice way to sell crappy carton apartments for millions of dollars
